Chemical Treatments For Termites

Repellent Chemicals

Repellent chemicals offer great protection from termites since they are easily detected and strongly avoided by them. Unfortunately, if there’s a break in the chemical application, either from being unable to access all areas, or if a treated area is later compromised, white ants may identify the gaps and gain access.

The often frequently used chemical repellent is Bifenthrin, with a residual effectiveness of up to five years.

Non Repelling Chemicals

The chemicals are not sensed by termites, and so the termites do not avoid exposure to the chemical. Once exposed, the white ants will soon die, and will also transfer the chemical on to fellow colony members, thus resulting in a flow on result.

Because termites can not detect non-repellents, they are not able to know the difference between treated and untreated areas, so access via possible gaps is significantly reduced.

The most common used non-repellent chemical is Fipronil with a residual life expectancy of as much as 8 years.

Termite Baiting Systems

Used to exterminate termites in a home, Above Ground Systems position bait stations directly where there is termite activity, so the termites feed upon the bait matrix instead of the structures they have been infesting previously. As well as killing the termites that consume the bait at the source, there is also a compounding effect when worker termites feed the bait to further colony members.

In this way, the entire termite colony can be eliminated, even though you do not know the actual location of the nest. The bait stations continue to be monitored and assessed, so that they can be added, rebaited and/or moved in response to the observed results.

In Ground Systems can be used similarly to Above Ground Systems. However they are typically installed around the property to provide early detection of termites. This method is particularly vital when the building design prevents the effective use of perimeter barriers, as they stop the termites before the perimeter is breached.
